It is because Jews are rich more often than not, and because Blacks are more likely to be culturally American just like them, if not exotic if they're the race traitor type. It might also be because they got ideas from porn that Black men are more well endowed. It is true, but only as an average. Just as most White men are bigger than Asian men.


America is truly a cesspit isn't it?

I personally don’t think it’s racist to have ethnic and/or racial preferences in dating, I think it’s just your personal preference, with no ill will attached. In fact, I think inter ethnic and interracial is a good thing for society and human genetics, decreasing the amount of racism in society and increasing genetic admixture to facilitate the further evolution of humanity.


I think you're a bit wrong about genetics. You should read more scientific studies on DNA or related genetics. Black Africans are very different of all other human races. Their skin color do not change even after many generations despite others do. For example, a Chinese descendant may become different over 7 generations in another continent than in Asia. Even an Indian or an Indonesian decendant may change his skin after 8 - 10 generations. But the skin of a Black African descendant remain same despite the change of a clime, a continent or a planet.
And remember that many or some Africans had cannibalistic behavior till the modern days.
Also, if you don't fear of places like Senegal, Togo etc. renowned for scams and fake accounts of millions Dollars promoted by fake brides in the dating advertisements everywhere on the planet...


Lots of white Americans have African ancestry and don't even know it until they get a DNA test. So you're wrong.

Do folks really think genetics is like fingerpainting where it all goes one gloopy colour when the paints run together?

Who fucking cares anyway? Aren't most people a bit more concerned that any descendents they have are broadly decent people who leave the world a better place than they found it?

I was thinking Uyghurs in particular, but Turkic peoples in general. Genghis Khan was a redhead, as many people forget. You can find Arab blondes and Berber gingers. Blue eyes can naturally (ie in mostly non-mixed race people) be found as far east as Korea and as far south as the Swahili Coast. People tend to make stronger racial distinctions for individual traits than actually exist, tbh.

Having a racial or ethnic preference in dating is not racist. However, refusing to date certain races or ethnicities for ideological reasons is racist.

Africa’s birth rates will be collapsing just like ours as they become developed, it’s not a phenomena unique to Europe.

It’s occurred in Asia, including the Indian subcontinent, where India is expected to surpass China’s population before themselves capping out and subsequently collapsing.

No. They're going to travel and dating with other people.

Lots of white Americans have African ancestry and don't even know it until they get a DNA test. So you're wrong.

Maybe lots of white Americans. Because they mated with such genes partially. Americans were more conservative in the past so they didn't mated completely in genetics. But a Black African mating with a Black African will only have Black descendants.
In fact if a white child is born in Africa that is considered a demon and therefore got killed. That's Africa.

I don't think it's racist, really. You're attracted to whoever you're attracted to. That's inherent to you, and you shouldn't force yourself to be with someone you don't find attractive just to make others happy.

That being said? If there is someone of another ethnicity or race that you are attracted to, that you like, who likes you, and you're both generally all around compatible? And you choose not to pursue that for issues related to ethnicity or race? Then yeah. That's racist.

So I voted OTHER.

People said the same things about Asians 100 years ago. It never happened.
Because as population density increases in those places birth rates will decrease.
Have a child becomes more and more expensive as density increases and society urbanizes.

Plus other factors, but birth rates change.

Also you are using the one drop garbage. A child of a black and white person is not all black. They are equally white.

That's a bit more of a grey area, but my instincts do lean towards saying that is somewhat racist.
